uslcom(4) appeared somewhere in 7.0-STABLE in GENERIC, and you are running 7.0-RELEASE, that is older. freebsd-update works only with releases (plus sec.patches), and 7.0-STABLE is not a release (obviously because you cannot definitely say to what date it corresponds). So you should update it to STABLE manually or wait until 7.1 is out. wbr, pluknet _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
